Ben Kweller


Who can melt me like butter, make me cry like a bubba, put a grin the size of the moon on my face and remind me to work hard for the money?

Ben Kweller.

It is rare in this world of much, muchness and more . ..
to find genuine, straight up people of truth and beauty . . .

Somehow this pearler combines the lot!

How many prolific musicians take the time to hang out after a show, to say howdy to a group of people who are aching to express their interest, adoration and make complete fools of themselves (Aka: 'Fans') ?

Ummmh, not many. If any.

Young Kweller is willing to engage with this community and I think it is one of the clear secrets to his success... he makes what he does and the aura of the stage seem attainable, and that's a great thing.

I'm impressed. Woah.

So, If you need a 'kick' into your daily routine, something to shake your bones and make your heart sing, try 'Changing Horses'. Kweller's latest release will have you boot scooting all over the traps and remind you that life IS grand! Hey, who says you need baby Jesus to tell ya how great living is?
